Corrupted Pleasure

Age-Gap Mafia Romance (Kingpins of the Syndicate)

De: Eva Winners

Narrado por: Jason Clarke, Angelina Rocca

Tight knit friendship Forbidden romance Irish mafia Age Gap

The first time I saw him, I knew I'd never want another man the way I wanted him.

The second time, I drank a bottle of his most expensive cognac, which I'd never be able to afford on my own.

And the third time… well, he caught me stealing from him.

Stealing from the head of the Irish Mafia wasn't smart. But then I never claimed to be.

Now I owed him a debt… a big one. And it couldn't be settled with money, or favors.

He only wanted one thing… Me.

Submitting to his darkest demands.

Once the debt is settled he’ll let me go.

Except he is forbidden to me.

Because if I were smart… I'd figure out another way to repay my best friend's father.

Amazing pre-quel to a new series.

This is the first book I have ever picked up from this author. Her storytelling really captures your attention and keeps you enticed! However, the reason why I gravatated to this book was because the one and only JASON CLARKE was narrating!! He could easily read the ingredients to an artificial cereal box and you will pay attention and buy!! Liam and Divina's main character's story was an interesting one, but the author definitely paved the way for all of the other characters and their own storylines.

Good entertainment

Turned out to be very funny in the end. Couldn’t stop laughing there for a bit.

Fun!

I would call this “mafia light”. The story line was about 40% romance between the main characters and 60% about the MFC with her girlfriends. Also, I did have a slight problem with the huge age gap, it was too far apart for me (21/47). The narrators were perfect, especially Jason Clark (pant pant). He has such a deep, sexy voice. I would say the good reads rating on this book is correct. Happy Listening❤️

commentary

hilarious and very entertaining. definitely worth the credit. I laughed something when it came to the four girls.

Yum

As always Jason is fabulous. Eva did a great job tying the lines of all the families together in this book. I highly recommend reading the books in order.

Liam’s Voice? SWOON. HOLY F'N HOTNESS!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Eva Winners FREAKIN’ DID IT AGAIN! Corrupted Pleasure kicks off the Kingpins of the Syndicate series, and let me tell you—this book is 🔥 mafia romance gold. If you’ve read her Belles and Mobsters series, you’re gonna be obsessed because so many familiar faces show up, I see you Alexi and Sasha! You don’t have to read those first, but you absolutely should.

Let’s talk about Liam... older Irish mob boss? Yes, please. He’s dangerous, powerful, and completely gone for Davina—his daughter’s best friend. Yum. And Davina? She’s a total firecracker. Smart-mouthed, fearless, and not afraid to put Liam in his place. She takes no shit. Their chemistry? Explosive. The sexual tension? Unreal. The drama? Peak mafia romance.

I was hooked from page one— constantly laughing at Davina and her chaotic, badass crew, swooning over Liam’s possessiveness, and absolutely living for all the forbidden, steamy, holy-shit-did-that-just-happen moments. This book is a wild ride, and I didn’t want it to end. I actually listened to the audiobook right after because how could I not?!

🎧 Audiobook Review 🎧
Narrated by Angelina Rocca & Jason Clarke—and listen, Jason Clarke, YOU. OWNED. LIAM. 😮‍💨 Swoon city, population: ME. His Irish mob boss voice? HOT. AS. HELL. 🔥🔥🔥 He brought all the alpha energy, and I felt every possessive, growly, dirty-worded moment. Like damn. Angelina Rocca was a perfect Davina—spunky, sassy, and totally captured her vibe. The dual narration made this even better. If you love audiobooks, this one is a must. Absolutely worth the credit, I promise.

🔥 Final Verdict? Mafia romance PERFECTION. Liam and Davina are everything, and I need book 2 like yesterday.

Great read!

Great story and performance. I truly love this story and this series! Liam is hot as sin and totally drool worthy. A must read.

😩🔥🥺

This book was something I did not know I needed. Liam……Lord have mercy 💦💦🌊🌊🌊🌊💦💦💦💦 this book was good. I do wish it would’ve went into more detail about Davina when she meets her siblings.

Performance 10000/10💦🌊🔥💥
Story 10/10

Lots of fun!!!

Laughed my ass off between all the fun spice!!! I’m still trying to figure out how the Chicago thing was stealing it seemed like all they did was win at poker. A lot of winning, but had they not caused the ruckus it would have been no harm no foul. It didn’t take away from the hilarity of a mob boss being exasperated by his daughter, wife, and friends shenanigans.

Age gap duet is 🔥🔥

This might have been the first time I have heard Angelina Rocca and Jason Clarke as a duet pair, and the chemistry their voices provide is electric.

Angelina as Davina is such a great casting — I love when Angelina plays a “sassy” FMC and Davina fits this bill! She is young and used to being “on her own”. Her independent streak and adventure seeking spirit fit Angelina’s characterization of her voice; she was such a strong chick to listen to. Don’t even get me started on the steam…. Angelina delivers her signature breathless in a way that is sensual and well-measured.

Jason Clarke is the best friend’s dad as Liam. The tension that builds in scenes between Liam and Davina is a dance Jason leads with power and an unabashed dominance. I enjoy Jason in these roles because he can create such a sharp, direct and powerful tone in the matter of an instant. And again, the steam Jason delivers is such a delicious contrast to Angelina’s feminine energy and it is combustible. It felt like Liam and Davina had a genuine and intimate connection.

There’s so much great action, suspense, and world building that sets up the rest of the series. It’s spicy, yet Angelina and Jason do such a great job at allowing the intimacy outside the spice to grow.
